1-year labour warranty

Cost to repair a tank water heater in Vancouver, BC

Low: $99

Average: $199

High: $399

What affects price?

What you’ll pay to repair your tank water heater depends on:

What needs repaired. The part that needs repaired or replaced will drive your overall repair cost. You’ll pay more to replace a thermocouple or gas control valve than you will to replace an anode rod or flush sediment from your tank.

Whether your warranty is still valid. If the manufacturer or labor warranty on your hot water tank is still valid, your repair will cost less. The plumber who installed your tank should be able to tell you whether either warranty is still valid.

The plumber you hire. You’ll pay more for better-quality plumbers, but you’ll also get better-quality work. With an inexperienced plumber, you could end up paying more (in future repairs) than you’d save on this repair.

"Ashton was the only one to call me back and ask about my personal wellbeing"

I had the pleasure of dealing with Ashton Plumbing for my hot water heater in April. After receiving quotes from several plumbing companies within the Richmond area I was reeling from sticker shock. I am an older person and on a limited budget and was concerned about affordability. Of the 3 companies that I had received quotes from, Ashton was the only one to call me back and ask about my personal wellbeing. The lovely girl I spoke to called to ask if I had access to hot water to shower with and was genuinely concerned. She said that although she was new to the company, she wanted to assure me that Ashton provided quality service. Since the quotes were all roughly in the same price ballpark I decided to go with Ashton on customer service alone. Once they came and did the work quoted, I was gobsmacked to see the young man cleaning up after his mess and telling me to leave the mess to him. Thank you Ashton for being kind and respectful to this old woman.
